I agree if you have the mark II then ordering this new mark III makes absolutely no sense. The reason I ordered it is because I had the old non-IS version which I traded in to get image stabilization and closer focus. Since mark III was only 300 bucks more than mark II then I figured it was worthwhile to go for the new one. If it was something like 800 bucks more then I likely would have just ordered a mark II.
